Can someone PLEASE point me to an example of how to create an elasticsearch.yml file that uses ipv6 addresses. I am unable to get the 3 nodes of my elasticsearch cluster to communicate. The instances of elasticsearch are all running individually on the machine by they will not communicate with one another.

Hi @pmatreides

There's the official documentation where you may found all your need:  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.5/modules-network.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.5/modules-network.html)

Hope it help.

Thanks but that's not really helpful, I wanted an example of a config file using an ip v6 address schema. There are plenty examples of ipv 4 files.
